## What is ROOMS?

«ROOMS: The Toymaker's Mansion» is a unique puzzle game inspired by sliding puzzle and platformer games. In a twisted mansion made of rooms that slide like puzzle pieces, the player should find a way to the exit by moving rooms and using what's inside them. As the player explores the mansion, various gadgets are introduced and make the puzzles more tricky and challenging. 

Set in a fairy tale-like world full of magical objects and spooky stories, the player takes a role of an innocent little girl, Anne, who was accidentally trapped in the mansion. As the story unfolds itself, the player goes through the dark legend of the twisted mansion. 

The game has 144 levels which are divided into 4 themes (mansions). Each mansion has basement levels where Anne can use her special abilities like using a cellphone to teleport, placing a bomb, and moving all rooms at once.

### 3/5 — Near Perfect

*2025-07-16, version 1.225*

Love this game.  On 4th mansion & enjoy the various challenges/obstacles.  

ONLY COMPLAINT:  Both Annie & the rooms ‘move too slowly’ on *some* levels to achieve my goal of 3 icons.  I replay with moves & go as fast as I can, careful to avoid unnecessary room spins, but I wait on Annie and/or rooms to catch up & I finish, again, with only 2 gold icons.

Incredibly  frustrated, I’ve even tried a hint thinking I’ll see a better path, but the hint tells me what I already knew to be right. 

OPTIONS:
-Reasonable time for some of these higher levels AND/OR
-Improve the game’s response time to moves.  

I see no updates posted for several years, so I realize this issue won’t be addressed.  But-developers- if you read this, remember this issue for future games; and please, please consider an update to this otherwise fabulous game. 

BTW:  Played on iPhone 14 Pro Max w game setting on highest quality; device is not the problem.

### 5/5 — 好きだけども難しい

*2025-05-26, version 1.225*

絵も音楽も大好きです！が私の頭の悪さを思い知らされたゲームでした。途中で力尽きました。苦手だけど好きです(；ω；)

### 2/5 — 遊戲很好玩但根本沒辦法同步啊

*2024-06-11, version 1.225*

試了好幾次，想平板手機換著玩，結果進度根本沒辦法雲同步，這個功能是設計來耍人的嗎

### 1/5 — Agaçant…

*2023-03-18, version 1.225*

Bug au niveau de la vitesse du texte (trop speed et illisible), même chose pour les solutions (impossible de suivre à une telle vitesse), inintéressant et fatiguant… quand le jeu baisse de prix, ce n’est pas toujours la promo… très déçu…

### 1/5 — Data and progress always lost

*2023-01-05, version 1.225*

You can never restart where you left off. There’s no syncing across devices. Money to spend on everything but every time you open the app then you have to start all over from the beginning. Whatever I bought is long gone with no way to get it back. The game itself is beautifully designed but I can’t take the constant starting over. Would give no stars for this reason alone.

### 3/5 — 困ってます

*2022-11-23, version 1.225*

iPadでプレイしていましたが、iPhoneにもダウンロードして同じAppleIDでgame centerにログインしてもゲームデータが同期されません。
iPad側で手動でcloudにデータセーブしてもiPhone側で復元も出来ませんでした。
どうしたらいいんでしょうか…

### 3/5 — 업데이트대체언제???

*2022-10-19, version 1.225*

몇년을 업데이트안해주시면어쩌라구요 ㅜㅜ
제발 업데이트좀해주라요~~

### 5/5 — 오랜만에 다시 하고싶어서

*2022-09-08, version 1.225*

다시 깔아보려니 플레이 했던 세이브 파일이 전부 없어졌네요..😭😭 
옷도 두어개 빼고 해금하고(전부였을지도..) 맨 마지막 저택 클리어 하고 중간중간 지하실에 막혀서 접었던 것 같은데 계정 로그아웃이 안 보여서 다른 계정을 따로 찾아볼수도 없고 혹시 방법이 없을까요..??

### 5/5 — 언제 다시 나왔대

*2022-07-22, version 1.225*

오래 전에 아이패드에서 하고 언젠가 서비스 종료 돼서 아쉬웠었는데 다시 나와서 보고 바로 구매 ❤️ 다시 내주셔서 감사합니다 ❤️
